Lovers On The Run now streaming at tQ

Echo & The Bunnymen are back with new material, and it's sounding - on the evidence of the track streaming above - rather good. 'Lovers On The Run' is a bit of classic Bunnymen pop, reminiscent of 'The Killing Moon', and features original guitarist Will Sergeant and production work by Youth.

Echo & The Bunnymen can be found touring in May on the following dates:
